Obikin Student/Teacher AU with a twist

In which Anakin is a young nerdy University Professor who loves math and robotics and advising his grad students who is railed by human disaster and emotionally constipated Obi-Wan Kenobi

The second time they meet is in the classroom. Anakin is teaching freshman college algebra. Obi-Wan, using his GI bill to finally go to college, stumbles in half away and confused why the twink at the bar, that he met a week prior, is teaching. 

Read more below. Taken from my twitter:

Top Obi-Wan/Bottom Anakin

I want Anakin as a young professor all bright eyed and constantly talking about his work, his students, just excited to teach and I need Obi-Wan stumbling in with a hang over, sees the nerd and says that he's gonna rail him five ways to Sunday and make him cry

Yes this is the au where Obi-Wan is Anakin's student and they had a one night stand before classes started but after as Anakin tries to remain professional Obi-Wan has other ideas but Anakin gets annoyed because Obi-Wan isn't taking his class seriously and it hurts his ego

"Obi-Wan you got a D on my last exam" "I can give you the D" "Not only was that horrible I'm not sleeping with you again until you get it up to at least a B come on you're better than this and stop smoking we're in a non-smoking area"

Yeah Obi-Wan is that bad at math and he thinks he can get Anakin to give him~private lessons ~ only for Anakin to be like lmao nah my TA Ahsoka will be tutoring you But it's OK Ahsoka realizes that Obi-Wan is head over heels so they scheme together after lessons

I want mean daddydom Obi-Wan tho. I want him pushing Anakin's buttons to sleep with him again and Anakin being conflicted because this is his student but he really liked sleeping with him too But when he starts catching feelings when Obi-Wan wants something casual..

Obi-Wan is a mess. Leaving the military after so many years of service. Divorced from his wife. Sleeping on his friend's couch [Cody u are too nice] while he tries to get himself back together. Here comes this hot twink with glasses he wants to ruin. But what if he does?

What if they get together and he ruins it just like he did with Satine? She can barely stand him now. He made her regret their relationship. So he tries to keep it casual with Anakin. Not realizing he'll ruin him this way too because Anakin wants more

Anakin is the definition of attached and codependency. Which is why his first engagement failed. He was also young and naive but still. He doesn't do casual. But if it's the only way to be with Obi-Wan despite their student/teacher dynamic...can his heart stay casual?

Ah geez!

Sorry for inactivity. My brain has been all messy these past few months. Too much shit going on in life. And being neurodivergent, it’s been nearly impossible to focus on several things at once. ; m ; I’ve been exhausted as fuckkkkk

At least I had an alright summer! Went to a con for a day on July 31st, wore a cosplay I finished, went to a few concerts, and just... slept and relaxed a lot.

Oh! And I watched through the Kenobi series. I cried. 

Force damn it, Anakin. 

#personal post #Will write more later~ #*cough* but life has been really though lately. and it's like no matter how much I sleep I never have enough energy... #...and with that I haven't focused on star wars as much as I would like to. Makes me sad. :( #But maybe I should log on to ao3 and catch up on some obikin fics and read some new ones as well!

Thinking more obikin thoughts,,,,

(I should make this a series at this point aknsksns)

Anyway in a fix it universe where padme and Anakin are just besties, and Obi-Wan promised Anakin that after the war they could do whatever they want (comic compliant that's right),,, we arrive to completely-oblivious-of-his-feelings!Anakin & trying-to-woo-your-former-padawan!Obiwan combo 👀

Obi-Wan trying to give Anakin presents and bring him out on dates all over the galaxy, keeping his arm always around Anakin's waist and being affectionate,,,, all of this and Anakin, while drinking it up like a sponge, just doesn't get it. He thinks Obi-Wan is being affectionate because the war is over and after their last almost-death situation the council just doesn't care to reprimand about their obvious attachment anymore.

All of this is resolved, impossibly, by anonymous fanmail. The Jedi (even if they survived in this scenario) took a mighty blow on their public imagine with all the subtle propaganda Palpatine sprouted about them so they are trying to reply to the galaxy concerns and misconceptions about them. All jedi who are knights and masters are eligible for this fan mail stunt and the more famous they are the more of it they get.

Anakin gets a lot of fanmail where they gush about his and Obi-Wan romantic relationship and while at the start he's totally dumbfounded about it, the more they cite things he and Obi-Wan have been doing in these last few months (and years, let's be honest) the more he being (unknowingly) in a relationship with Obi-Wan makes sense. He gets his freak out with padme (who thought they were just being discreet and smacks some good sense into Anakin) and so for the next outing Obi-Wan organises for them, Anakin tries to up the game to see how Obi-Wan responds,,,, and Obi-Wan is Enthusiastic™ about it (poor man was going mad thinking he was doing something Wrong and now all of a sudden Anakin begins to initiate,, some more encouraging touches so he's Ecstatic).

Just think: them going on romantic dates for months, but with no kisses, Obi-Wan staying patient because he knows Anakin has never done this before but getting progressively more depressed thinking he may have interpreted this wrong, and then out of the blue Anakin kisses him after their date. Obi-Wan mind is blown. Man is going to worship is boy now that he has the all clear lmao

(even funnier is thinking about Obi-Wan pestering other jedi about it and getting smashed while crying that Anakin maybe changes his mind. Quinlan just drops him into his apartment and vows to never ask about Anakin again while Obi-Wan drinks: it only gets him Obi-Wan dirty old man rants or his infinite sadness rants. No in between).

Even more hilarious is the fanmail being explicit at some point (everyone says to Anakin that he must be enjoying Obi-Wan big dick energy so much) and Anakin first thought is be offended that ppl would think of him as the bottom - and then getting turned on by the thought of being fucked into incoherence by Obi-Wan. Classical Anakin behaviour Mr."I want to be in control" and then having a meltdown the second he gets the supposed control he wanted. Poor boy just needs to be fucked pliant and he'll be good.

Anyway, that's it. My 1 am obikin thoughts strike again.

Tatooinian Glass Artist Canon Divergence Obikin AU

(ok, that was a mouthful, but you'll understand in a second. Also, shoutout to @grapenehifics for putting the idea of glass into my head.) Glass is extremely important in Tatooinian culture, both for the slaves and the slavers. Sand is one of the few things they're in abundance of, so once upon a time, they thrived as crafters. But when demand for their craft died, so did the workshops, the artists--after all, making glass takes water, and that's not something they can waste.

So most glass is passed from long ago, or made in very tiny quantities. The knowledge is forgotten, and the tools simply don't exist.

Enter Anakin, who, incidentally, is a child of the Force who can blast pure concentrated energy enough to melt sand. It's fun. It's pretty! He gifts his first piece to his mother. Then to the other slaves. Finally, a good use for sand, he thinks proudly every time someone is overjoyed when he slips the glass into their hand.

But the glass bits that Anakin creates aren't simply glass; they're Force-attuned glass. Not in the way kyber is, not that strong, but the potential is there.

And it's in the hands of a small slave boy doing it for fun.

Eventually, Shmi realizes that her son's creations are dangerous. Both ideologically and quite literally. Glass, to the people of Tatooine, means prosperity. It means worth of the sea that surrounds them. It means a life before there were slavers oppressing them.

And not to put a fine point on it, but it doesn't take much engineering to turn Anakin's glass into a weapon.

They can use this to fight back.

Several years later, the Hutts are dead. Tatooine outlaws slavery. Then the Clone Wars start, which doesn't make them happy. They didn't just win their freedom only to be ground under the heel of war.

Their elected leader, Shmi Skywalker, contacts the Order. She has a proposition for them. Something they'd be very interested in looking into.

And she sends a small, perfectly round marble that shines like a supernova in the Force.

General Kenobi and his Padawan are sent to Tatooine to speak with Skywalker. Where did she get this? How is it possible? Shmi is not willing to divulge anything she doesn't have to without negotiating first. If the Order wants to know the secret behind the glass, she has demands.

Obi-Wan reluctantly agrees. The Order has to understand what this is before the Separatists discover it. And upon the deal being sealed, he meets Master Glasssmith Anakin Skywalker--Shmi's gorgeous, snarky, intensely curious (and just plain intense) son, who can create beautiful Force-attuned glass with Force-lightning, stars preserve them.

(is this anything?)

What fueled your transition into Obikin? How does writing about our boys compare to writing Obitine (the loveliest most badass woman).

Hi!

Thank you for the ask 🖤

Now, please forgive me while I ramble.

First of all, I love Obitine. I absolutely adore the love and respect they have for each other. Their relationship is complicated and nuanced and also just so so tragic and I've adored every fic I've written for them.

When I wrote my first Obikin fic [The Resolute Theater Presents] it was a complete departure from anything I'd written before. To that point, not only had everything been Obitine, but also in-universe AND all part of the same series [Even if You Wanted to]— the same story I'd been telling every week for almost a year.

I had just finished a fic that, if I'm being honest, really fucked me up [Bound and Broken]. I love this story so much, I'm so proud of it, but FUCK did it put me in a bad place. I needed something light and unserious and this silly Broadway AU was just looping through my mind and I decided to go for it.

While writing Resolute, something — I don't know — something happened. Something changed as far as how I was thinking about the stories I could write.

Instead of always thinking about what came next in an ongoing story, and holding myself to someone else's plot points, I was thinking about entirely different worlds.

Basically, I realized I could write anything.

That's when Haunted Heart happened and it just sort of blew the doors off my brain.

I owe a lot of this change in perspective to fellow writers like @yourfavoritefridge and @palfriendpatine66 whose continued support and encouragement have pushed me to write a lot of things am deeply proud of and would never have had the courage to write without them cheering me on.

IN SUMMARY

I would say it was less of a shift from Obitine to Obikin, and more a shift from one long canon-compliant story, to… whatever the fuck I wanted to write?

That being said, let's address the Obikin of it all.

I think it has way more to do with the dynamic than any actual shipping or subtext. As I said earlier, the Obitine dynamic is based on respect. But Obikin? That's something a lot closer to obsession.

There's something about the unhinged nature of their dynamic that tickles my brain in a specific way that I can't quite explain?

​​And, I'll be honest— the popularity of the Obikin ship certainly doesn't hurt, but I think what's more important is that the community is SO supportive. There is so little pressure or expectation, with a real emphasis on writing what you want. Like I said, the kudos and comments are great, but— I can write a fic that’s basically just a rant about AI, or a weird smutty first-person dissociative thriller, or a story about Obi-Wan literally fucking himself and I know it will be met with nothing but positive energy and encouragement. That’s something that keeps me coming back to Obikin.

Clearly, I still love Satine, she's shown up in my AUs here and there and I always enjoy having her around. I really love including her as someone Obi-Wan feels safe with. A friend he knows will always shoot him straight and always be there for him.

I’m sure I’ll write more Obitine when the right idea appears in my mind, but right now, I’m just chasing stories.

oooh abba lyrics? Love that! #47 there was something in the air that night with Obikin 💖

ABBA song lyric prompts

Hello there! Coming at you with a quiet post battle celebration (look at me trying out these snippets in the gffa!) apparently I have no idea how to keep these things short. I hope you enjoy! 💕

The battle had dragged on and on. Grueling days and sleepless nights blended together into an indistinguishable blur of advance-fight-retreat-regroup. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.

But then when weariness had taken hold, the exhaustion so deep it was hard to remember feeling any different, to think back to a time that wasn’t filled with the constant chaos and injury and destruction of war, the tide had shifted.

The 212th had broken through the blockade and met up with the 501st and together they were able to accomplish what they hadn’t been able to apart. By the time the sun had set they had driven the Separatist forces away and reclaimed the base.

There was something in the air that night, in the simple celebration that took place under the night sky. The clouds of acrid smoke had cleared and the stars were visible once more. Fires burned late into the night, far past when exhausted men should have been awake. Yet all around figures stayed close, pressed together and voices low, unwilling to part. Not when it had been so uncertain who would be left among the living when daylight broke once more.

The Generals were among those lingering. Kenobi looked as though he hadn’t slept in years and it was a real possibility that the only reason he remained seated in the warm glow of the fire was that he couldn’t find the energy to rise. Skywalker’s shoulder leaned against his side so they were effectively propping each other up; by all rights they should have collapsed long before.

Cody and Rex exchanged a knowing look and subtle nods after they’d fallen silent for an extended period, glazed eyes staring into the flames, their faces as blank as though they were deep in meditation - or else sleeping with their eyes open which, to the commander's knowledge, was a skill neither had yet achieve. Not for lack of trying.

“Generals,” Cody addressed them as he stood, holding his helmet under his arm in the loosest attention he was capable of. “We’re going to check in with the men one last time before we turn in.”

“Yes, of course, Commander.” Obi-Wan began the seemingly monumental process of shifting to rise but was stopped by a firm hand on his shoulder.

“General Kenobi, sir. If I might be frank,” Cody paused.

“Go on.”

“It’s an honor to serve with you. Not all the troops are so lucky. Not all of the generals are there in the front lines with their men. Not all care whether their men live or die, see them as more than numbers.” Obi-Wan started to respond but his commander uncharacteristically talked over him. “BUT the battle is over now. You two should get some rest.” He nodded to them both before walking away brusquely.

“Neither of you are good to anybody dead,” Rex stated more curtly. “And it’s senseless to survive all of that,” he jerked his chin toward the battlefield, “just to die of exhaustion.”

“Understood, Captain,” Anakin dismissed him with a nod and a crooked smile. “What’s gotten into everybody,” he questioned wryly as the clone saluted and took his leave. “It’s like there was a truth serum in that ale - and it was about as weak as water. Even I’m not feeling anything, but everyone else has been sentimental.

“It’s not anything to do with the liquor, lightweight,” Obi-Wan lightly nudged his elbow into the younger man’s side. “I’m not sure how it looked on your side of things but on ours…it was pretty bleak,” Obi-Wan admitted. “We didn’t expect to break through. Most of the men were prepared that this battle would be their last. Staring down the reality that we might lose was eye opening.” He gave a deep exhale and then cleared his throat before adding on, “or so I would imagine.”

Anakin snorted. “Right.”

“What?”

“Just say it.”

“What? I have no energy left for guessing games.”

“You thought you were going to die,” Anakin’s voice broke at the end. “I did! I’m not ashamed to admit it. Why can’t you acknowledge your feelings, even if you did accept it like the perfect Jedi that you are?”

“Perfect Jedi,” Obi-Wan muttered under his breath. “You can’t be serious.”

The flickering light of the fire threw deep shadows over Anakin’s face, the dark angles rendering it unreadable as he awkwardly turned, still half pressed against the older man’s side, in an effort to look directly into the other’s eyes.

“Yes! Dammit Obi-Wan! I was afraid, alright? I was so afraid. Every hour, every minute, that I couldn’t get to you was an eternity. I knew how bad it was and if I didn’t get there in time you were going to die. I was going to break through and it was going to be too late.”

“Anakin.” The fire reflected in Obi-Wan’s eyes, flames dancing in the shadowy depths of his emotions. “I didn’t accept it.” He turned and they slid together, foreheads touching, looking directly into each other’s eyes. “I didn’t accept that it might be my time. I rejected it with every fiber of my being. I had to make it to you. Anything else was unacceptable.”

Long lashes blinked back at him, plush lips open but silent as the younger man attempted to assimilate the statements into his worldview. They didn’t match the one constant in the universe he could count on: Obi-Wan Kenobi.

“Besides,” Obi-Wan continued, “I knew it couldn’t be my time. Not yet.”

“Why not?” Anakin asked the easiest question of the many all racing through his mind, despite the protests of his dry throat.

“I’m just certain that when I go, it will be with you by my side.”

Obi-Wan’s lips twisted into a sad smile, and Anakin found he couldn’t tear his eyes away from the sight. He’s never spent so long looking at his master’s lips. Not when they’d passed on patient lessons or the biting words of frustrated rebukes and lectures. Not when they’d planned shared trust and crafted battle plans. Now, chapped and rough and barely visible in the low light of the dying fire, he couldn’t have looked away if he’d tried.

As focused as he was, he didn't miss those lips coming closer to his own — although he couldn’t have said for certain who was responsible for moving them together. All he knew was that when they finally met in a soft kiss he felt a peace unlike anything he had ever known. Obi-Wan drew back and for a long time simply stared into his eyes, searching for answers to the question only he knew the details of. Finally found what he was looking for, bringing their lips together once more and finding they fit together like they were two halves of a whole.

“I’m really, very glad you’re here with me tonight,” Obi-Wan eventually admitted shakily into the breath of space between them.

“Me too.” Anakin closed the space once more, seeking the warmth and reassurance of the other’s presence as the embers died down and darkness grew. The stars were shining above, seemingly only for the two of them to see, and they were both there to see it. Together.

[unspuncreature]

a few weeks ago i was briefly possessed by the spirit of writing and spat out a mishmash of concept and ficlet at @renlyslittlerose, who took it all in stride and even encouraged me to post it!

i wanted to wait until i had the bandwidth to polish it, but with my limited time and energy these days, who knows when that will be.

instead, below the cut, i’ve copied the exact original messages i sent with absolutely zero editing. i hope you enjoy my candor and typos.

here’s the obikin bath & body works au ✨🫧🧴🧼

i feel like i’ve talked my way around a bath & body works-adjacent AU without ever actually talking about it but you know what?? today is the day

anakin is a retail associate at a soaps+lotions store and obi-wan comes in looking so handsome and frazzled and confused and anakin is like. oh boy one of these. ok sir who are you buying a gift for 🙄

except he can’t get all the words about because once he’s close enough to greet the man with his normal spiel. he realizes. this is the most amazing smelling man he’s every encountered in his LIFE

so he fumbles through helping obi-wan pick out a gift basket’s worth of assorted but complementary lotions and body scrubs in a daze. hoping and praying to the powers that be that he did not just help this man build the perfect gift basket for his girlfriend or, heaven forbid, his wife. and as anakin walks him all the way to the checkout counter (usually he just points customers in that direction but anakin is LATCHED onto this man), obi-wan turns to him and squints at his name tag and says “you’ve done a lovely job, anakin. i think with your help i’ll be spared my sister’s disappointment.” and anakin’s heart SOARS while his dick threatens to publicly embarrass him because he has never heard his own name sound like THAT coming out of anyone’s mouth ever

he’s almost forward enough to ask the man’s name or even give his phone number, but balks and ends up giving him a discount card for buy one get one half off any purchase of 2 or more body care products. except the expiration date is scratched out and scribbled over hastily in anakin’s handwriting, written to now expire instead at the end of the week

obi-wan blinks but pockets it with a charming smile and thanks anakin AGAIN and anakin thinks he might just pass out at this point

the rest of the shift passes in a haze, anakin makes it home and kicks himself the entire night, barely able to sleep. he barely pays any attention in his classes the next morning, worried that even if obi-wan does return, he has no idea when anakin works and they could very possibly miss each other entirely. that is, if obi-wan even comes back

his coworkers ask him what’s wrong when he clocks in the next day, and anakin grumbles and does his best to put on something akin to a serviceably customer-friendly mask. he drags like a zombie as he resets the seasonal display in the center of the store, snapping into lucidity every time the door chimes and a customer walks in, none of them his warm and spicy, flustered and handsome nameless crush

defeated and debating whether or not to feign illness so he can just go home and languish in bed, anakin hangs up his apron and goes to clock out for his break when he hears another customer enter. he doesn’t turn around, unable to stand any further self induced disappointment. one of his coworkers covering for him on his break greets them. and anakin’s stomach drops

“i made a purchase yesterday actually and was hoping to speak to the associate who assisted me. does… is anakin working today, by chance?”

“oh… i’m so sorry, he’s on break right now, but i’d be more than happy to—“

anakin doesn’t care that he must have bruised his hip on the checkout counter with how quickly he throws his apron back on and whips around to barrel through the store at lightning speed. he can’t even be bothered to bite back the stupid smile on his face.

with all the grace and propriety of any man on a mission of true love, anakin slips in beside his coworker and pipes up over her, locking gazes with the man and relishing the way his eyes widen, then soften and crinkle with warm recognition.

“i’ve got it from here, it’s really not a problem.”

anakin doesn’t even turn to see which of his coworkers he’s just so rudely dismissed. they must leave without fuss though, because then it’s just the two of them, staring at each other over a carefully stacked pyramid of passion fruit and peony hand lotion.

“short break, then? i’d hate to be the reason you forgo your lunch.”

“i’m alright. i’m, uh. i’m not hungry.”

the man smiles knowingly and cocks his head to the side, a lock of hair falling in his face as his eyes crinkle once again, just the faintest hint of age.

anakin thinks he might die. he smells even better than he remembers. it’s like nothing he’s ever smelled before. certainly nothing they sell here, at least. it can’t be cologne, right? jeez. maybe this is how all those ridiculous hallmark movie leads feel when they lock eyes with their favorite generic brown-haired man of the hour. anakin wants to fall into this man’s thick, sweater-clad arms. he wants to wedge his face in the crook of his neck and nuzzle his beard that looks oh-so-soft and inhale him. he wants to get down on one knee and ask if he—

“… can get your help with something?”

oh. right. anakin desperately hopes the flush he can feel crawling hot up his neck isn’t as visible as it feels.

“y-yeah, of course. sorry. what can i do for you?”

tl;dr because i promised myself i’d start my day at 9:50 and it’s now 9:56 BUT

obi-wan coyly asks anakin to help him find products for *himself* and anakin is like. um no offense but are you insane. you smell amazing already. and obi-wan is like 👀 and anakin is like NOT that i was smelling you because i WASNT hahahh that would be SO weird i just. there was a strong breeze. and. man that cologne you’re wearing sure is strong. plus i have a sensitive nose yknow. for example, i can smell that uhhh…… and obi-wan is like. i’m… not wearing any cologne. and anakin is like 😵‍💫

anakin helps him make his purchase just as dazed as he was yesterday. rings him up himself to make sure he gets his special anakin only discount. and then he finally gets obi-wan’s name.

obi-wan asks if he’s free after work. anakin says yes and also he’s free every afternoon for the rest of his life. in case something comes up and obi-wan needs a rain check. or something. obi-wan laughs and says today is just fine.

obi-wan picks him up and they go home and put obi-wan’s brand new body oil to excellent use 😌 the end

Pacing 😠 (How much detail is too much detail?? IDK)

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?

#I WAS BLESSED WITH A TAG #fic tag #star wars fanfiction #just writer things

[bbygirl-aemond]

are you planning on writing any other long fics after stormbreak or just vibing after its completed?

hehehe

i have an obikin fic in the works bc my star wars brainrot has exploded (thank the bf, who's making me marathon the ENTIRE franchise in CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER). the first chapter will likely be posted later this summer after stormbreak is done. however...

i don't think i'll ever hold myself to the weekly update schedule again.

stormbreak has been a fascinating exercise in pushing myself as a writer, don't get me wrong! forcing myself to write 10k+ words a week for nine months on end has taught me a LOT. it's quite frankly the only reason a fic as long as stormbreak will make it to the finish line, too. and it's been so fun to build a routine with readers when it comes to engagement! but it's also something i never wanna do again lmao.

i've been spending around 12-18 hours on this fic alone every week since october of 2022. that's a lot of hours, and i'm already a busy person!! it takes a TON of mental energy and careful planning to ensure that i'm not diminishing my academic and social life. i've had to get pretty creative about where to squeeze in time with my friends so i don't just become a hermit, for example.

the regular update schedule is still something that i think works really well for me tho- so i've been thinking about maybe biweekly? as in every other week. we shall see!

#i can't start actually writing the obikin fic until after stormbreak is done bc my brain cannot hold space for two simultaneous wips lmao #but i'm balls deep in the planning stages for sure #ask #asks #answered #fic: stormbreak

congrats on 7k fics on ao3, obikin friends!!! this last year has seen such an incredible outpouring of work, with the show inspiring so many stories, it's amazing! i hope we can carry this energy into 2023 and continue to tell how the boys fell in love over and over in every world and every scenario 💗💗💗

#obikin #i hope to do my part #fanfic stuff #sw #nice job guys this is really special #it was MUCH lower back in 2020 haha

I appreciate the potential unhinged energy of a same/similar age (in appearance at least) Twilight AU where they're in high school together but I raise you benevolent Dr. Kenobi that most of the nursing staff has a crush on and somehow works around the clock at the hospital and honestly cares about patients especially one Anakin who keeps ending up in his care for a variety of non-lethal injuries (Anakin keeps finding excuses to go see the hot doctor with gold eyes so what if he's obsessed)

ack i was gonna answer these acts separately but this could potentially fit very well with @ladytano-ofthehouseofskywalker's ask from yesterday about what a dark twilight au would look like:

IRE: twilight au, I had this thought the other day that like twilight as is like isn’t the very best story or relationship (still love it tho) but if it had had a different author who like wasn’t afraid to go dark, it could have been SO satisfying (and also at that point not for children lol)

So I’m here for like campy goofy twilight obikin but I would extra be here for some ‘so the lion fell in love with the lamb’ turned up to 11. Like that story is already about unhealthy obsession but let’s at least make it sexy plz.

so it really just depends on how dark we want to go---my first instinct was that a very creepy dark vampire fits more with a sith anakin in my mind (even when he doesn't mean it, he's very...intense in my vampire anakin fic)

BUT thinking about a doctor carlisle sort of obi-wan, who has been around for ages and he's a pretty good dude, very nice and polite, but he doesn't have much of a vampire family and he's been alive for so long that when he meets a 19 yo college dropout anakin, sent to live with his sheriff mother in hopes that he'll be straightened out and put on the right path, he's just divorced enough from a human sort of code of ethics that he's like huh well why not encourage his interest in me it's flattering and he's attractive and this sort of dynamic was very common when i was first born

etc etc

i think that could be VERY interesting as a dark take on twilight that would still have a very eager and obsessive anakin

(and can you imagine an obi-wan frozen forever at like. 30/35. and an anakin frozen forever at 19/20? hot damn)

#asks #if we can figure out a twilight au to expand on (this is always based on popular vote) #then i'll make a tag for it lol #obikin

[obi-wkenobi]

Zoëëë!! I miss your writing! Did you hit a wall of writing block? ☹

a wall sounds too polite for this writing block, it's more like a ceaseless black pit of demotivation and disengagement. so yeah, a bit of a writing block haha, but there have also been other factors involved. I started a new job in February and I won't go into the details of it, but it's very stressful and has practically zapped any energy I might have had after work or at the weekends.

also, though I know I've never been a very fast writer, I have been consistently producing fic for the obikin fandom for nearly three years now and my interests have finally slightly wavered. do I still love obikin? absolutely, they're my broken, helpless boys, but the fandom has been tiresome recently and I found myself going elsewhere for a distraction. I'd love to come back and continue my wips but I'm also okay if I don't, maybe that's it for me and writing? basically, I don't really know yet, I'm just going with the flow

#i do miss writing but also i have no energy to do it #sigh #obikin #answered asks #about me

[virahaus]

Don't mind me. No no. Don't mind me thinking about Emma by Jane Austen again. The sheer Obikin energy it has.

It's almost so perfect that I could say with great conviction that Jane Austen would totally be a Obikin shipper.

Emma and Mr. Knightley? They know eachother since she was a kid and they have a 16 age gap.

Mr Knightley scolds her routinely because he thinks her too brash and not thinking clearly? Obi-Wan doing the same for all of AOTC.

Emma being a brat, always wanting to be the best, and routinely trying to get on Mr Knightley nerves? Anakin behaviour right there

Emma not realising how much she really loved Mr Knightley, and having a crush on a wealthy and young man? Anakin and Padme, and Anakin only realising how much he wanted to go with Obi-Wan's in rots.

And ofc do I have to say anything at all about Mr Knightley iconic love confession?

If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more.

Is it not describing Obi-Wan feelings for Anakin perfectly???

Please tell me I'm not delusional sknxkana

[tomicaleto]

how about “who the hell did this to you?” for obikin?

Hi Nixie! Thank you for sending this prompt, I'm sorry it took me so long to answer!

hurt meme

So lately it feels like I'm always saying I'm having trouble writing or coming up with ways to fill prompts I'm sent and this is no exception lol.

This needs a bit of context: so I somehow have fallen in a Ben 10 frenzy, I been watching breakdown videos and having a lot of nostalgia. So this is a Ben 10 AU of sorts. The original series had Ben and his cousin Gwen at 10 years old, in one episode we meet Kevin, an 11 years old that becomes a villain that occasionally shows up. Then we get the Alien Force series where Gwen and Ben are uhh 15/16 and we get a sort of redeemed Kevin at 16/17. Gwen and Kevin have a thing, it's great and I shipped them so much.

So basically this AU is set in a kind of Alien Force setting. Ahsoka, only mentioned here, is Ben, in the sense that she has the omnitrix, but is still a Togruta. Obi-Wan and Anakin fill Gwen and Kevin's role. Anakin is kinda a redeemed villain (like Kevin) but has Gwen's power set (he's an energy being called anodite) while Obi-Wan is like Gwen (in the sense that he's not a former villain and his Jedi backstory which I haven't thought about yet ties him with Ahsoka) but he has Kevin's powers (he can absorb energy and matter)

That's a very lengthy introduction but otherwise this may not make much sense.

Oh! Also, Anakin and Obi-Wan are kinda established but it's complicated

“Who the hell did this to you?”

Obi-Wan checked his watch, only five minutes left of the class. His students were finishing taking notes so he cleared his throat to grab their attention. “If there are any questions left, this is the time to ask them.” 

As he finished speaking, three different hands got up in the air and he pointed at the nearest one. “Yes, professor, we’ve mentioned that Plato’s allegory of the sun was later…” 

By the time he finally reached the doors of the university, he was dreading his walk back home, the often peaceful time tainted by his tired body. He would have to talk with Ahsoka about patrolling so late in the night, he was not a young man anymore. But he was pleasantly surprised when he looked up and found Anakin’s car waiting for him at the entrance, as students stared at the yellow details Anakin had painted on it. 

His steps now eager, he approached the car and leaned down, forearm on the driver’s door, and smirked. Anakin’s tinted window began going down and he was ready to open the conversation with a teasing remark when he saw Anakin’s torn clothes and black eye. The words dried in his mouth and his whole expression shifted into a serious one. 

“Before you say anything,” Anakin said, most likely having figured out Obi-Wan’s burning concern, “get into the car, I’ll tell you on the way and I don’t want to make a scene.” 

Of course he didn’t, Anakin, despite being quite unsubtle when expressing his emotions more often than not, was still extremely private. He didn’t like Obi-Wan’s students whispering as they stared, nevermind that Obi-Wan knew that half of the time they were gossiping about the ‘handsome man that kept visiting professor Kenobi’ or that Anakin was around the same age as them. 

So he simply nodded and circled around the car, getting into his designated passenger seat and buckling his seatbelt. Anakin started the car then, and pulled away from the university building with ease. 

They stayed quiet around three seconds before Obi-Wan turned towards Anakin and hissed: “Who the hell did this to you?” 

“Let’s just say I found doctor Vindi.”

“Did he attack you? Why didn’t you call me or Ahsoka?” He asked, torn between worry and anger. Anakin could be proud at times, but Obi-Wan had thought their little team had grown on him. 

“Ahsoka is at class, she wouldn’t have picked up and I didn’t want to interrupt your students either, I know they have an exam soon.” It was touching that Anakin paid Obi-Wan enough attention to remember when he was planning to quiz his students. But still. “And before you say that this was worth interrupting your class, let me say that I wasn’t exactly looking up the dude, alright, I kinda came across him accidentally and I wasn’t prepared.” 

Obi-Wan’s frown –when had he begun frowning?– eased a bit and it made Anakin's shoulders relax. “Even then, it’s quite strange for you to get surprised like that, were you low on energy? Did your spells fail or something? Should we be worried about your mana or your anodite form?” 

Anakin snorted and immediately stopped, one of his hands leaving the wheel to grab at his ribs. “My powers are fine.” He stubbornly said. “It’s just… there were plenty of civilians, alright? I had to multitask.” 

It made sense. But Obi-Wan still worried. “Let’s go to my place so I can put some ice on that eye and check that your ribs aren’t broken. You’ll call Ahsoka and we’ll plan there.” 

Anakin sent him a side-eyed look. “As you wish.” He answered softly.

I saw an anti-obikin post and I thought it was like satire so I checked out the tag and boy was I wrong. People really, really care about what other people ship. Now me 5 years ago would be defensive/angry/and probably hurt about what they say about "people like me". Now I feel mostly indifferent and genuinely a little sad for the more aggressive ones. In as a non-condescending way as possible to say it, I hope they have the opportunity to go to therapy, because there just has to be something deeper there going on. Are there ships I don't want to read, hell yeah, but I don't give a flying fuck if someone else does. Like sometimes I barely have the mental energy to brush my hair if I don't have to leave the house. I'm exhausted just thinking about being so obsessed with something fictional.

I hope people don't send you hate. You seem like such a nice person and are so sweet here on your page, plus you write amazing content. You deserve only kindness and not their anger.

Oh and if you don't want to respond to this because of possible anti bullshit, please don't. Just wanted you to know, your stories make my days better. I hope you keep writing obikin for as long as you want to. And if that happens to be for a really long time, you won't see me complaining lol

I think the thing that hurts me the most with this kind of thing is that they can't even be on the same discord server/chat/etc with me. I shouldn't say that it really hurts me, but I would be lying if I said that it didn't bother me a little. That my ship of two fictional characters means that I'm so morally destitute that interacting with me is somehow wrong in and of itself.

I genuinely truly hope that the people who are overtly anti-obikin (or anti in general) are able to grow and see the world for the nuance that it has. Like you, I don't mean that at all in a condescending way. I just really hope they can find a little bit of peace because that's a lot of mental exertion to hate something that much!

I am with you that there are ships I don't care for but I give absolutely zero fucks about those ships and I'm really glad that the people who do like them have a space to talk about them!

There's at least one anti-obikin list I've ended up on. I've gotten a couple of weird anons, but nothing blatantly hateful which I am very thankful for!

I think it helps that I don't really do anything with my blog except obikin stuff. That's really all my blog is and if someone comes to it, they're not coming to it for anything else lol. I feel really bad for other obikin creators who have a blog that deals with a wider variety of things because I imagine they are probably more exposed to the fanbase at large.

Your message was super sweet and thank you so much!! I have no intention of stopping yet! The ideas just keep flowing...
